Sweet Beloved Reborn

Chapter 44: He Will Like You



The caller displayed on the illuminated mobile phone screen: Younger Sister.

Not only that, but there was also a picture of Xiao Mingyue on the screen. Xu Ningzhou did not want to help him answer the call.

But the girl didn’t give up and continued to make the call. Xu Ningzhou worried that there might be something urgent, so he helped to answer the call. He spoke first.

“I am Xu Ningzhou, and Mingyang has gone to the bathroom.”

“Brother Ningzhou!”

As soon as she heard Xu Ningzhou’s voice on the other end of the phone, Xiao Mingyue’s sent a cheerful greeting.

Xiao Mingyue, who was sitting in the car, held a mobile phone with a sweet smile, and her voice was even sweeter, “Brother Ningzhou, when will you guys finish?”

Compared with Xiao Mingyue’s voice full of enthusiasm, Xu Ningzhou spoke in a completely indifferent tone, “What happened? Why are you looking for your brother in such a rush?”

Xiao Mingyue’s smile immediately froze at the corner of her mouth. She lowered the window and looked at the hotel. Yet, she still said in a sweet girl’s voice, “I’m afraid you may be all drunk and unable to drive, so I took the driver to the hotel to pick you guys up.”

“Already here?”

“Um.”

“Wait.” Xu Ningzhou got up and went to the bathroom to find Xiao Mingyang. The sound of Xu Ningzhou’s walking came from the mobile phone. Even listening to the man’s sound made Xiao Mingyue blush. She changed the phone to the other side and rubbed her ear.

Xu Ningzhou found Xiao Mingyang in the bathroom. Xiao Mingyang had already vomited, and he was much soberer now. He was burying his head in the sink and patting his face with cold water.

As soon as Xiao Mingyang looked up, he saw Xu Ningzhou coming in the mirror with his bloodshot eyes. His gloomy face instantly turned into a smiling one, and he started to tease the person in the mirror, “Are you really coming in to help me?”

“Mingyue is looking for you.” Xu Ningzhou handed the phone over and pulled the absorbent paper over.

Upon hearing Xiao Mingyue’s name, Xiao Mingyang wiped his hands hurriedly, took the phone and said warmly, “Hello? Mingyue.”

Xu Ningzhou turned away. He lit a cigarette in the smoking area and looked through the window at the night view of Wan’ning City.

He came back after more than ten years. It seemed that something had changed or not..Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

After the dinner party ended tonight, Xu Ningzhou did not leave the room early. After Xiao Mingyang sent everyone away, Xiao Mingyue appeared in the lounge while carrying two food boxes. When she saw that only Xu Ningzhou and Xiao Mingyang were left there, she shouted with a sweet smile on her face like a cute little rabbit, “Brother, Brother Ningzhou.”

Xiao Mingyue was 19 years old this year. After graduating from junior high school, she followed Xu Ningzhou abroad. Now Xu Ningzhou had returned, and she only got to know the fact when she went to look for him at his apartment when school started.

Xiao Mingyue also returned from abroad regardless of the possible consequences. Because of her abrupt return, she hadn’t secured a school in China, but Xiao Mingyue had already set a goal: Xinghan Music Academy.

“I brought you the sobering soup.” Xiao Mingyue put the food boxes on the table and opened them. She then handed the first one to Xu Ningzhou.

Xu Ningzhou said with a smile that she should hand the sobering soup to Xiao Mingyang, “Give it to Mingyang. I only had a few drinks tonight, and I don’t need the sobering soup.”

Xiao Mingyang knew that her sister liked Xu Ningzhou and was very accustomed to her behaviors like this.

The sobering soup was still warm, and his stomach was burning before, which made him very uncomfortable. His mouth was now warm after he gulped the sobering soup.

Xu Ningzhou glanced at the time and stood up. He said, “It’s late. Since Mingyue has come to pick you up, I’ll go first.”

Xiao Mingyue anxiously said, “Aren’t we leaving together?”

“No, I’m going back to the courtyard tonight.” Xu Ningzhou picked up his suit jacket and waved his arms to them.

Xiao Mingyue’s eyes were fixed on Xu Ningzhou’s receding figure. She bit her lower lip, and there was an expression of unwillingness on her face.

Xiao Mingyang drank a bowl of sobering soup, raised his palm, and rubbed his sister’s head. He said in a hoarse voice, “Stop looking, he’s gone.”

Xiao Mingyue blinked reluctantly before embracing Xiao Mingyang’s arm with a face of grievance. She was then on the verge of tears, “Brother, am I not good? Why doesn’t he like me?”

“Silly girl, you are fine.” Xiao Mingyang hugged her in his arms. His lips lovingly rubbed Xiao Mingyue’s hair, “He will like you.”

“Really?” Xiao Mingyue listened and immediately lifted her head from Xiao Mingyang’s arms. The top of her head directly hit Xiao Mingyang’s chin.

Xiao Mingyang said “ouch”, and Xiao Mingyue immediately reached out and rubbed his chin. She then stuck her tongue out to express her apology.

Xu Ningzhou left the military compound courtyard by car at ten o’clock in the evening. Sitting in the back seat, he turned on the headlights while pulling up his sleeves. A bruise appeared on his arm. He grinned and said, “The old man’s strength is still so great.”

The bodyguard who served as the driver on the main driver seat smiled and answered, “The commander is always strong.”

Xu Ningzhou leaned on the back of the chair and smiled, “He truly is! The bruise is all the same as before.”

When he was a kid, this demon king almost had no fear. The only thing that could scare him was his grandfather’s stick. Now the stick had become a cane, but the strength was the same.

Xu Ningzhou rubbed his arm. Fortunately, the old man knew how to control his strength. He only targeted Xu Ningzhou’s muscles and didn’t hurt the bones.

Being in a good mood, Xu Ningzhou couldn’t help thinking of his little fairy. Then he immediately took out his mobile phone and called Song Qinghuan.

Sitting in front of the computer, Song Qinghuan checked the flight ticket to Dongyang City. It would take an hour if she flew from Wan’ning City without delay. After that, it would take half an hour by train to the place where the crew was filming.

Song Qinghuan rarely had the opportunity to go out alone, so now she needed to plan the entire route in advance. Right when she was preparing to buy the ticket, her mobile phone rang.

The caller showed the name of “Xu Ningzhou”. Song Qinghuan held the phone in her left hand and clicked the mouse by her right hand to buy a ticket, “It’s so late, haven’t you slept yet?”

At night, Xu Ningzhou’s voice seemed to have magical power, and the hearers would be enchanted. He smiled and said, “Not yet. I’m on my way back, how about you? You are not practicing the piano now, are you?”

“No, I’m buying a ticket.”

Upon hearing the words “buying a ticket”, Xu Ningzhou straightened up, “Buy a ticket? Where are you going?”

Song Qinghuan’s finger on the mouse froze. Her thoughts flowed quickly, and she finally said, “I have a job in Dongyang City.”

Xu Ningzhou didn’t ask what kind of work she had during a semester, and it was in Dongyang City next to Wan’ning. He knocked on his knees with his fingertips. The crown prince immediately squinted his eyes, and his sexy voice was mixed with a gentle smile, “Send me the itinerary and let me arrange it.”

Song Qinghuan pressed the mouse and drew a tick on the screen. This time, she did not refuse Xu Ningzhou and told the latter about the itinerary. Even the ticket was bought by Xu Ningzhou.

At noon two days later, Xu Ningzhou came to the Xinghan Music Academy to pick up Song Qinghuan and drive her to the airport. In the underground parking lot of the airport, after the two got off the car, Xu Ningzhou was thrown into the back seat by Song Qinghuan before he had a firm footing.
